I knew of a guy took barrels out of a corvair engine offset ground the vw crank for small journal Chevrolet rods and made a big bore stroker engine. Produce quite usually the Chevrolet rods are longer for the torque.
Once the 2 shims are inside the engine case, the distributor drive gear can be slid in. Then install your distributor (with the cap removed) and rotate the rotor until it points in the correct direction for the #1 Cylinder. For Type 1 and 2 engines, #1 will be pointing towards the rear right of the engine (or 4 to 5 o’clock). For Type 3 engines the rotor will point towards the front left of the engine (or 8 to 9 o’clock). We only mentioned the differences for the original distributor versus the aftermarket distributor as the positions would be 180 degrees opposite.
you can put a Oil tremp sender where the Pressure relief Scew goes , I never knew that Plus Ive never seen the full Flow Kit like that that utilizes the front One I will have to look into that Cheers
@@briansmythe3219 unfortunately no. The taxes, duties, import fees and the shipping cost are too cost prohibitive. We've tried in the past and lost money virtually every time.
Hey Sam your videos are awesome!! Does Gaskacinch now work around the case nuts instead of aviation sealer? Thanks so much for taking the time to create this video series! Trev.
We used Lucas Oil Assembly lube generously throughout the engine during the build. We find it negates the need for “special” cam lube but you can use your experiences and preferences to build to your methods.
You can search “Gasgacinch alternative” and come up with a few alternatives. The only other thing we’ve personally used besides the Gasgacinch is Yamabond, but we still prefer the Gasgacinch.
Yes they can. That being said, it is much easier to ensure that the distributor timing gear is correctly installed by setting it in place before the crank is dropped in.
@@BasedBidoof No problem, our engine was dirty but even after cleaning we could see staining on the block from the original sealant. You can see a streak below the center lower main studat the 6:00 minute mark. That was from VW. When we were doing the live filming, I even narrate that bit saying how you could see the drips from the factory sealant. You can see as I point to it in the video.
@@Sam_Mebane thanks for the reply, yeah I haven't fully cleaned my block off yet. I was just watching assembly and testing videos to learn tips and tricks. Also reading a lot of books, but you can't always get the nuance from reading
I started on VW's at age 14 and eventually built engines for several shops then had my own shop doing mostly engine rebuilds . Aviation 3D Permatex is Great and what I started with but later went with GasGacench on the case halves, silicone on the oil pump mounting gasket ( NO sealer on the oil pump cover gasket - only engine oil rubbed on the cover and pump flange) then use the Aviation 3D on the pushrod tube seals - be sure to have the seam on the tubes up so no chance of oil leak if the tube splits at seam.

Your videos and parts are honestly so so nice. I can find anything I need on your website then watch your videos to learn how to put it on!
Thank you, we appreciate the kind words and we'll do all we can to keep the part available and the videos coming!
Well done very nice.
Very clear and instructive. Thanks!
my friend how can i talk to you? I'm Brazilian and I have a workshop that works with air-cooled VWs.
You can email me at sam@jbugs.com. Keep in mind we do not ship internationally.
I love Jbugs.
Great video! If you can please explain in more detail the placement of the distributor. I would appreciate it! Thank you

Thanks for the update. I plan on doing this soon for the first time and plan on upgrading to the PerTronix SVDA.

Do you Guys Ship to Australia ?

Not as well as aviation sealer, no. Do yourself a favor and get a bottle, it is good stuff.
Thanks Sam, I’ll do that! Stay safe!
What happened to the break in lube for the camshaft lobes????
We used Lucas Oil Assembly lube generously throughout the engine during the build. We find it negates the need for “special” cam lube but you can use your experiences and preferences to build to your methods.
Cant find gasgacinch nor aviation sealant in my country. What replacement is suitable? Thanks
You can search “Gasgacinch alternative” and come up with a few alternatives. The only other thing we’ve personally used besides the Gasgacinch is Yamabond, but we still prefer the Gasgacinch.
😂😂🤣🤣 Whatever, floats your boat 😮
Can i install the 2 shims of the distributor after closing the case?
Yes they can. That being said, it is much easier to ensure that the distributor timing gear is correctly installed by setting it in place before the crank is dropped in.
Is the same torque used for a stroker engine?
Yes, regardless of the crank (we actually use a 74mm stroke crank in this engine) the case torque is the same.
JBUGS I have a 82mm crank there would change the torque?
@@richardvarela341 No the torque remains the same.
JBUGS Thank you very much for the help!
wouldn't the aviation permatex on the case bolts change the K value for torque?
Maybe, but that is what VW did. We figure they knew what they were doing when they set the torque values so we just follow what they recommended.
@@Sam_Mebane good to know, my block was filthy so I wouldn't have know it was on there.

2 minutes into the assembly and already bleeding
The job isn't done until blood has been drawn!
Hello..can i seal the block with aviation sealant??
It can be, yes. It does tend to be a bit thicker than GasGaCynch so we prefer it over the aviation sealer on the case halves.

Great videos but you need speak slower, it's very hard to understand, slow down, take a deep breath, but your videos are outstanding. Cheers
Click on the gear at the bottom right and change the playback speed to whatever is easiest for you to follow.
I have no doubts that you are a VW genius, but you talk so fast it is hard to understand you.
Play at .75 speed!
